Access to starting point:
A) We drive into Kropa, and then we continue driving towards Železniki and Dražgoše. When Kropa ends, we are still driving by the stream Kroparica, and on the right still before the left hairpin turn and Slovenska peč we notice a larger macadam area, where we park.
B) From Besnica (at Kranj) we drive towards Dražgoše, higher above the settlement Podblica we continue in the direction of Kropa. The path ahead leads us past village Jamnik, and then we start steeply descending towards Kropa. After Slovenska peč we will on the left soon notice a larger macadam area, where we park.
C) We drive to Železniki, and then we follow the signs for Dražgoše and Kropa. The path ahead leads us past village Jamnik, and then we start steeply descending towards Kropa. After Slovenska peč we will on the left soon notice a larger macadam area, where we park.

Path description:
From the starting point on the road which runs by Kroparica we ascend to Slovenska peč (Slovenska peč is the oldest preserved furnace in Slovenia, built in 14th century), opposite of which stands NOB monument, and behind the furnace, the signs for Vodice point us to the right on a worse road which quickly changes into a wide path, still before we cross Kroparica we continue sharply left on an unmarked footpath which is further ascending diagonally towards the left, and higher few times crosses an asphalt road. Higher, we stay on the road and we continue there to the right hairpin turn. From the mentioned hairpin turn, we continue straight on a cart track which then crosses slopes, and then it ascends diagonally and in few minutes brings us to a marked crossing, where we join the marked path which starts in the center of Kropa.
Here we continue right in the direction of the mountain pasture Vodiška planina (straight - Kropa, slightly right - Jamnik).
Next follows few minutes of a steep ascent, and then we cross an asphalt road.
On the other side of the road, we continue on a marked cart track, and from there we soon go right on a footpath which after few minutes returns on a cart track. Next follows a relatively short ascent on a cart track, where we make few hairpin turns, and then the cart track narrows into a mountain path. During the further ascent for some time a view opens up a little towards Jamnik, and after a smaller religious symbol, the footpath widens into a cart track, and it brings us to a crossing, where from the left the path from Jamnik joins.
We follow the signs for Vodice, and we quickly get to a crossing, where the path branches off to the left to Tehnika Meta.
Here we leave the path towards the mountain pasture Vodiška planina and we continue slightly left on a footpath which past the storage in approximately 5 minutes of additional walking, brings us to Partisan cyclostyle Tehnika Meta.
From the inscription box, we continue forward, and the path turns left and descends to the cart track, we cross it and we continue on another cart track which ends, and the marked footpath continues left. Lower follows few more crossings, where we follow the blazes, when we reach a wider cart track, we continue on the cart track all the way to the road, in spite of that, that the marked path branches off left downwards.
When we reach the road, we follow it to the right, and after some time it brings us to a crossroad, by which there are signs for Tehnika Meta, and we continue to the left road which slightly descends. We walk on the road to the first turn-off of the cart track to the left, and the cart track on which we continue after few steps splits.
We continue right and we join the marked path Podblica - Bela peč.
Further, we follow the marked path, which is mostly gently to occasionally moderately ascending, and higher, at the paragliding airfield from there a nice view opens up, which reaches all the way to Kamnik Savinja Alps.
The marked path continues right from the viewpoint and through the forest and by the edge of plateau steeply ascends to the nearby peak, from which a nice view opens up.
